US government seized $1M from Russian ransomware gang
The U.S. Department of Justice announced on Monday it has seized the servers and $1 million in bitcoin from the prolific Russian ransomware gang behind the BlackSuit and Royal malware. According to the press release, a coalition of global law enforcement agencies, including from the U.S., Canada, Germany, Ireland, France, U.K., and others, seized four servers and nine domains on July 24. In addition, authorities also seized around $1 million in cryptocurrency. BlackSuit and Royal are two different types of ransomware, believed to be developed by the same Russian cybercriminal gang that has targeted critical infrastructure in the United States and beyond. 'BlackSuit actors have demanded over $500 million USD in total and the largest individual ransom demand was $60 million,' the U.S. cybersecurity agency CISA said in an advisory last year. 'The BlackSuit ransomware gang's persistent targeting of U.S. critical infrastructure represents a serious threat to U.S. public safety,' Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg said in the press release. According to ICE's Homeland Security Investigations, which led the investigation, Royal and BlackSuit have compromised more than 450 victims in the U.S., 'including entities in the healthcare, education, public safety, energy and government sectors.' And, in total, the cybercriminals have earned more than $370 million in ransom payments since 2022. The recovered bitcoin was recovered from a digital currency exchange account, whose funds were frozen in January of last year, according to the announcement.

Ukrainian drone strike kills 1 in Russia ahead of the Trump-Putin summit
KYIV, Ukraine — A Ukrainian drone attack killed one person and wounded two others in a region some 260 miles east of Moscow, a Russian official said Monday, as fighting continued ahead of Friday's Russia-U.S. summit in which President Vladimir Putin seeks a peace deal to lock in Moscow's gains. Nizhny Novgorod region Gov. Gleb Nikitin said in a statement that drones targeted two 'industrial zones' and caused the casualties and unspecified damage. A Ukrainian official said at least four drones launched by the security services, or SBU, struck a plant in Arzamas city that produced components for Kinzhal hypersonic missiles. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss operations, said the Plandin plant produces gyroscopic devices, control systems and on-board computers for the missiles and is an 'absolutely legitimate target' because it is part of the Russian military-industrial complex that works for the war against Ukraine. Russia's Defense Ministry said its air defenses intercepted and destroyed a total of 39 Ukrainian drones overnight and Monday morning over several Russian regions as well as over the Crimean peninsula that Russia annexed in 2014. Friday's summit, which President Trump will host in Alaska, sees Putin unwavering on his demands to keep all the Ukrainian territory his forces now occupy and to prevent Kyiv from joining NATO, with the long-term aim of keeping Ukraine under Moscow's sphere of influence. Putin believes he has the advantage on the ground as Ukrainian forces struggle to hold back Russian advances along the front. On the front lines, few Ukrainian soldiers believe there's an end in sight to the war. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky insists he will never consent to any Russian annexation of Ukrainian territory nor give up his country's bid for NATO membership. European leaders have rallied behind Ukraine, saying peace can't be resolved without Kyiv. With Europeans and Ukrainians so far not invited to the summit, Germany sought to prepare by inviting Trump, Zelensky, the NATO chief and several other European leaders for a virtual meeting on Wednesday. The German chancellery said the talks would seek additional ways to pressure Russia and prepare for peace negotiations and 'related issues of territorial claims and security.' Steffen Meyer, spokesperson for German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, said earlier Monday that the German government 'has always emphasized that borders must not be shifted by force' and that Ukraine should decide its own fate 'independently and autonomously..
